BARRO in Spanish refers to earthenware clay or mud.

BARROCO, or baroque in English, refers to a period of art characterized by complex forms, highly ornate detail, and flamboyant style, conveying a sense of drama, movement and tension. In modern usage, the term "baroque" may still be used, often pejoratively, describing works of art, craft, or design that are thought to have excessive ornamentation or complexity of form.
